PS M-Virn (BTW is that pronounced like Mmm-pizza or Mmm-ketchup), I thought you like D13, when those pesky rebels finally got their comeuppance! I was trying for the 'I am one of you' vibe. Apparently it didn't work. I might have liked D13 a lot more if Servalan was involved. Cannot believe it all happened without her. And FYI my name is pronounced M1795537 Officer Commanding, Virn, or Ma'am, if it's easier. Or M'Boss I might go for M'Boss as well! Vote Og.

Now that is proper 1970s wallpaper! We used to have some like that - had it until the late 1980s when it was never longer in vogue!

In fact, it may have been the early 80s before we were gifted a colour tv I do remember my first TV when belonged to me, rather than my mum added, was a B&W portable. It was no good for my computer (Acorn Electron), though, that needed to be colour. So I got given an older second hand colour TV, and my B&W portable went downstairs in the dining room and I used to watch the snooker on it. Yep, snooker on a B&W TV

So this is all a load of propaganda about how policing and forensic methods have improved since the '70's?

Ah yes, it reminds viewers of the casual sexism of the 1970s. Maybe that's one reason for the warning for modern 2020 viewers!
